General Mach Discussion / LC Not Saving Files

« on: February 20, 2012, 11:43:39 AM »

Guys,

I'm rather new at this but have started to do a few bits and pieces.  I have no problems importing a drawing in to LC and have started to machine a few simple shapes.  However sometimes LC will not post any G code or save it to a file. Is it me or my version of LC.

Regards.

General Mach Discussion / X AXIS NOT WORKING

« on: November 22, 2011, 10:56:54 AM »

Hi I'm new to all of this and am having problems!

I am using  Windows XP Professional on a Athlon XP3200+2.10GHz prossesor.  My breakout board is a ZP5A-INT running PM542 motor drivers.  The problem is :~  TheY axis and Z axis work okay but the X axis will not move.  There are indicator LED's on the breakout board which illuminate when the Y and Z axis are running but the X axis not a flicker.  In jog mode again the Y and Z axis run but not the X axis.

I thought the problem was a fault on the breakout board, it was returned to the suppliers who tested it and returned it with no faults.

Anyone any ideas.

Regards,
